Slieve Corragh as others have said is a mountain en route to and from other places but on linear walks the same could be said of many mountains. In its favour it is centrally located and opens up interesting aspects to other Mourne mountains. Coming from Slievenaglogh as shown in this photo it certainly looks like a mountain!
